My name is Eric Sikkema. As of this writing, I’ve been playing guitar for almost 20 years, bass for about 10, and maintaining my own gear for for the at least the last 15 years. I started setting up and repairing guitars professionally in 2006 and have successfully completed the Guitar and Bass Set Up and Electronics course at the Chicago School of Guitar Making.

For me, music has always been a vehicle for expression, and I endeavor to break through the barrier that separates the outer instrument of wood and wire and the inner instrument of heart and head by honing and focusing each one to the compliment the other.
